Tuesday and Weds.

Hello again blog readers! I will start with Tuesday and go from there! I had my workout with trainer Paulette yesterday. It went great as always! I rode the bike instead of walked for the cardio part of it (Paulette was not able to walk so we decided I would bike and she would watch!) Food was the following
cooked oats
apple sauce
hard boiled egg
cheese
orange
1% milk
salad with oil and vinegar
tuna
1/2 slice of homemade bread
Manwich
Sandwich thins bread (Arnold Bakery brand)
peas
6 Triscuits
Calories for the day was 1545

Weds:
No workout. I woke up with sore knee. Still trying to figure that one out! I did do a few upper body strength training but mostly kept knee elevated and popped Aleeve.
Food was:
Whole grain toast
low fat cream cheese
small apple
Healthy Choice Chicken Marsala Cafe Steamers (Has whole wheat pasta that actually tastes good! LOL)
small baked potato (someone told me I shouldn't eat potatoes but I disagree, see an earlier post)
Triscuits and a few Townhouse crackers (boo hiss, bad yes I know!)
Homemade Chicken soup with homemade whole wheat noodles
Sugar free hot cocoa
I have not entered all this in Sparkpeople yet to know the total count but as far as I can tell I am around 1400-1500 for the day

I also went to the Pound for Pound Challenge and pledged 25 pounds. My other friend pledged 50 but this is until June 30 2010 and that is 25 weeks. I felt for me 25 was a decent pledge! Everyone go and do this! It's for a great cause --feeding people! Eat less and pledge more! :-)

Happy Monday!

It's a lovely cold snowy day out today! LOL! That is why I did not go anywhere!
I did day 2 workout in the boot camp from Sparkpeople today..WHEW! I modified of course, did not want to over-do strength training since I work out tomorrow so only went through it one time. I also did 15 minutes on the Gazelle and 15 on the recumbent bike.

Food for today was:
hard boiled egg
oatmeal
apple sauce
Triscuits (only 6 this time LOL!)
1 oz. cheese
homemade veggie soup
Hard boiled egg white (gave the yolk to the cats)
Navel orange
Baked fish --lightly breaded
small baked potato with spray butter
green beans and carrots
popcorn as a snack

Tomorrow is workout with trainer Paulette. Only two more sessions left :-(

June 2009 pic

Just for the record, here is a pic taken in June 2009.

Day one of a virtual bootcamp!

I completed the first workout video for the Sparkpeople.com "Spark Your Body Bootcamp" It was tougher then I thought and I had to modify it (they tell you that it's ok to do so) Who would have thought jumping or stepping over an imaginary line for 10 minutes was hard??? The whole idea was to get your heartrate up and it did! I also biked 10 minutes and did a few sets of strength training. Tomorrow's video looks good also. Some of the things it showed I am already doing at the fitness center.

Eating-wise I am still stuck in Christmas mode. Junk food around the house from New Years and I am trying to stay away from it as much as I can. I am planning on making some veggie soup tomorrow so that should be good!

I am starting a scrapbook this year for weight loss. I am having David take a pic of me once a month so I can see my progress. I will be posting these pics on here and in another blog on MyTrainerBob.com No laughing when you see these pics! I am wearing my sports bra and capris pants so there will be NO lying to myself or others!

Breakfast today:

Hard boiled egg

1/2 c rolled oats

Lunch

Homemade steak fajita

1 serving corn tortilla chips

salsa--tomato and also some of corn salsa

milk

Then it gets crazy LOL: triscuits, cream cheese, popcorn, toast the rest of the afternoon and evening! See what I mean about the crap in the house yet? Well, that will change again soon!

Have a good one bloggers!
